About SteamBio

SteamBio is an industry-research partnership supported by the EC Horizon 2020 Programme and SPIRE public private partnership, launched on 1st February 2015.

SteamBio will demonstrate in fields and forests an innovative mobile superheated steam process. This process will convert agro-forestry residues into stable feedstock for biochemical and bioenergy uses.

SteamBio involves the development of decentralised business models to enable widespread flexible deployment in rural areas across Europe.

The successful project will create local jobs and generate local wealth. It will also contribute significantly to the sustainability of supply chains for energy and chemicals.
